Alcaraz vs. Sinner rematch: Who will win the Wimbledon title? - ESPN

On Sunday, No. 1 Jannik Sinner and No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz will play each other for the Wimbledon title, only a month after the two faced off in an epic battle at the French Open.

Alcaraz won in Paris and is the two-time defending champion at Wimbledon. Will that give him the edge? Our experts weigh in on how each could pull off the victory.

D'Arcy Maine: Alcaraz has proved he can beat Sinner when the stakes are highest, and he knows what it takes to win at Wimbledon. After he defeated Taylor Fritz in the semifinals Friday, Fritz complimented Alcaraz's versatility, «his ability to win in so many ways,» and how he can make adjustments on the fly.

Those traits were key in Alcaraz's win over Sinner at the French Open and they will be equally valuable Sunday. Undefeated in his previous five major finals, Alcaraz has remarkable composure and fight, especially for being just 22, and if he is able to continue to find answers for everything Sinner hits his way by utilizing his staggering variety, this is his match to win.

Bill Connelly: Same thing I said before the French Open final: Keep going for it. Heading into that match, the bar was basically «hit winners on over 20% of your points, and you'll beat Sinner,» and after hitting just 12.9% in the first two sets, Alcaraz was at 21.7% in the last three (25.0% in the fifth set).

If you don't play a big game and go for winners, Sinner will grind you into dust. Alcaraz honestly hasn't been incredibly sharp in this tournament, dropping at least one set in four of six matches and clearing that 20% bar only twice (in his two straight-set wins, naturally). But he's pretty good at rising to the occasion — five Slam finals, five wins — so one assumes he'll be ready to swing big.
